Auto merge of #117962 - weihanglo:debug-name-table, r=wesleywiser
fix: stop emitting `.debug_pubnames` and `.debug_pubtypes`

A continuation of #94181.
Fixes #48762
MCP can be found in <https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/688>.

`.debug_pubnames` and `.debug_pubtypes` are poorly designed and people
seldom use them. However, they take a considerable portion of size in
the final binary. This tells LLVM stop emitting those sections on
DWARFv4 or lower. DWARFv5 use `.debug_names` which is more concise
in size and performant for name lookup.

Some other no-really-useful personal notes:
